CSharp Samples for Visual Studio 2008

Our first release on CodeGallery contains updates to the official C# samples that ship with Visual Studio 2008.

Language Samples Download Link

Please click here or turn to the downloads page to download the samples.

We have created a set of language samples to help you get familiar with various C# language features. They are available in the LanguageSamples folder.

LINQ Samples

We have created four sets of samples for you that are designed to help you learn LINQ quickly, and to act as a reference and guide for those with more advanced skills. A few handy utilities are also included.

Getting Started with LINQ

SampleQueries: This is the most important sample and contains about 500 examples of how to use each of the query operators in LINQ to Objects, LINQ to SQL, LINQ to XML and LINQ to DataSet.
SimpleLinqToObjects: The hello world of the LINQ samples. This shows you how easy it is to do simple queries of in-memory objects using LINQ to Objects.
LinqToNorthwind: A basic example of how to use LINQ To SQL to query a database.
SimpleLinqToXml: Get started using LINQ to XML.
WinFormsDataBinding: Learn how to display LINQ queries with grids in a Windows form. It includes a one to many query example.
XQuery: Another simple LINQ to XML sample query. This sample shows the minimal code necessary to write a LINQ to XML query
LinqToXmlDataBinding: Bind LINQ to XML code to WPF controls.

Advanced Samples

DynamicQuery: Code to create LINQ queries at run time.
Reflector: Use LINQ to right queries against the objects in your code using the Reflection APIs.
RSS: This sample acts as a tiny web server that aggregates several RSS feeds
SimpleLambdas: Several examples of how to write and use lambda expressions.
WebServiceLinqProvider: A sample showing how to create a LINQ provider to query Terraserver, a web service offering geographical data.

Addins and Visualizers

ExpressionTreeVisualizer: Create a visualization of an Expression Tree.
QueryVisualizer: Allows LINQ to SQL developers to see the SQL for their query, and also to see the results of the query in a grid.
PasteXmlAsLinq: A Visual Studio addin that automatically converts XML markup to LINQ to XML code. Note: Addins cannot be compiled or loaded within C# Express.

Libraries or Utilities

Data: Contains XML files and a modified copy of the Northwind database for use by several of the other samples.
ObjectDumper: A utility for writing the output from a LINQ query to the screen in text mode.
NorthwindMapping: Contains the ORM mapping created by the LINQ to SQL designer for the Northwind database that ships with these samples. It is used by DynamicQuery and WinFormsDataBinding.
Whitepapers: The following papers are stored in this directory in Word format:

To kick off a discussion of these samples, I'll introduce some of the team members who worked on them. Mary Deyo was the primary QA engineer, Terry Adams did much of the development work, and Alex Turner and myself have both worked on managing the project. In practice, we all did a little bit of everything, but those were the primary roles. We will all try to make ourselves available to answer any questions you might have, and to listen to your suggestions on how to improve the samples. If you haven't done so already, please sign in with your Live ID and then register yourself as a user on the CodeGallery site. The please feel free to continue this thread, or to start a new thread of your own.
